Lots going on: The Pumpkin Party on Saturday 29 October was a great success! A thoroughly enjoyable meal was had by all, a sizeable crowd merrily tucked into a delicious 3-course meal rustled up by our cook extraordinaire Kelly. The roasted veg & pumpkin tartlets were a triumph, the stew really hit the spot and the apple and blackberry crumble and cream ... hmm. All washed down with some excellent French organic wine supplied by Vintage Roots (now available in-store!) We are also a venue for Exeter Open Studios on Friday 4, Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 November so head to the cafe to see the new exhibition; the store will be open for shopping on Sunday 6 November.  Festive fare and our Christmas range in store from Monday 7 November. A customer pre-ordering service for your turkeys, veg, wines, hampers & much more will be available from mid November.

We look forward to welcoming you to the Real Food Store!
